"We're saying bad things about you." Claire flashed a naughty smile at her brother. Actually, Claire could be quite pleasant. But sometimes her selfishness made her do some pretty bad things. She would resort to trickery and deceit to get her way. Since she got away with a lot in the past, it would take time to teach her the difference between right and wrong. But she was getting there.

  "Oh, really! What are these bad things?" Kevin asked Claire, but looked at Leena all the time. He was very interested in how Leena would explain this later. He had a naughty smile on his face, too. He knew that they would never really talk about him that way, but he loved to play along regardless.

  "Everything, including how you were forced to kiss your classmate back when you were in school." Claire answered Kevin in a teasing tone. She really felt like teasing him tonight, so she pulled out all the stops. That incident was the best way she knew how.

  Leena was shocked. She tried to imagine this cold, tough man kissed by a teenage girl against his will, and she just couldn't do it. It was such a funny picture that it immediately brought a smile to her face. She put a hand to her mouth and started giggling uncontrollably.

  "Hmm…… I……" Apparently, it shocked Kevin, too. That was the most embarrassing moment of his life, and he couldn't believe she brought it up. He got flustered and started to choke on his food.

  "Don't get all choked up, honey. Here, take a drink." Leena still teased him, even as she passed him a glass of water. But she still had to stifle her laughter, and pressed her lips tight to avoid smiling. She could tell he was really uneasy now.

  "Yeah, yeah. Laugh it up!" Kevin glanced at Leena and Claire angrily. He would rather die than remember that humiliating moment. He would have felt much better if that girl was hot. But she was so fat that she almost crushed him to death when she fell on him. She knocked the br

  mbie!"

  "What……" That was the last thing Leena expected to hear. She looked at Kevin, now terrified. So how did Kevin, just a teenager at the time, push a heavy girl and knock her out? What was more, how could he do that? There was no way that girl could fight back. Now, he was a strong and well-trained military officer. What would happen if she pissed him off, Leena wondered.

  Kevin cast Leena a cold glance. A wicked smile flashed across his face when he caught her terrified expression. She was eager to know what happened to him in the past, but he had no reason to quench her curiosity. She shouldn't know too much about him. So was she finally regretting this little conversation? That thought brought a bright smile to Kevin's face, which only intensified the terror in Leena's heart. Leena could not help but shudder. 'Will he treat me in the same way if he gets really mad?' Leena asked herself in secret.

  The three finished supper. It was an easy, peaceful evening. They talked, laughed, and enjoyed the delicious food. As usual, Kevin gathered up the dishes and put them in the sink. He was the dish washer. He was too busy to keep Leena company at home, and he didn't really have the time to help out around the house. But whenever he was at home, he had to do something for her.
